[14:01] | Merov Linden | terrible typing today... |
[14:02] | Merov Linden: | I haven't updated the agenda this morning but I guess you saw the nice news |
[14:02] | Merov Linden: | all of parabuild SG builds now work :) |
[14:02] | Boroondas Gupte: | \o/ |
[14:02] | Merov Linden: | we have now a 1.x and 2.x trunks buildable |
[14:03] | Merov Linden: | that should help make progress on everything |
[14:03] | Merov Linden: | I can't wait turning back to that looooong backlog of patches and start committing like a maniac :) |
[14:03] | Boroondas Gupte: | :-D |
[14:03] | Merov Linden: | that'll sure feel nice |
[14:04] | Merov Linden: | to celebrate, I updated the current 1.4 release notes : https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Release_Notes/Snowglobe_Release/1.4 |
[14:04] | Latif Khalifa: | nice :) |
[14:05] | Merov Linden: | so, yeah, plenty to do now with patches, if you are a committer, please go ahead : it's open season right now :) |
[14:05] | Latif Khalifa: | can you skip some? :P |
[14:05] | Merov Linden: | skip what? |
[14:06] | Latif Khalifa: | some patches that already exist in 1.4 |
[14:06] | Merov Linden: | ? |
[14:06] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | slip the review or skip the commit? |
[14:06] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | *skip |
[14:06] | Latif Khalifa: | i think you said, now was the time to apply all snoglobe 1.x patches to 2.0 |
[14:07] | Merov Linden: | a ok, confusion: I was speaking of 1.x patches to apply to 1.4 |
[14:07] | Boroondas Gupte: | no, apply patches in jira to svn (for the branch they apply/where made for) |
[14:07] | Boroondas Gupte: | *were |
[14:07] | Boroondas Gupte: | ah |
[14:07] | Merov Linden: | then, sure, I'd like folks to port them to 2.0 |
[14:07] | Techwolf Lupindo: | I got a few patches in jira that need commiting. |
[14:07] | Latif Khalifa: | ah ok, sorry i was confused :) |
[14:07] | Merov Linden: | if they feel inclined to |
[14:07] | Merov Linden: | which I hope they will |
[14:08] | Merov Linden: | one thing I think I should do is spend some time reviewing the "building the viewer" wiki page |
[14:08] | Techwolf Lupindo: | Including that finished a bad port of the mine midea fix. |
[14:08] | Merov Linden: | I've all that fresh in my mind so that's the time to put that down in writing |
[14:09] | Merov Linden: | then I need to work on this "branding script" we talked about some time ago |
[14:09] | Merov Linden: | so that TPV can rebrand safely, without running afoul of the TPVP |
[14:10] | Boroondas Gupte: | Should we first write down the current istructions or first re-organize the the wiki page structure? (Currently, build instructions are scrattered all over the place) |
[14:10] | Merov Linden: | and then, yes, merging back 1.x patches to 2.0 as you said Latif |
[14:10] | Merov Linden: | We should re-organize the pages |
[14:10] | Merov Linden: | Would you like to lead that effort Boroondas? |
[14:11] | Boroondas Gupte: | Dunno, got a semester thesis to finish :-P |
[14:11] | Merov Linden: | details... :) |
[14:11] | Boroondas Gupte: | But I can kick of a diskussion on the mailing list. |
[14:11] | Merov Linden: | OK, yes, please do that |
[14:11] | Boroondas Gupte: | About the semester thesis? |
[14:12] | Merov Linden: | I'll be happy to jump in |
[14:12] | Merov Linden: | clarification: I won't help you on your semester thesis :) |
[14:12] | Boroondas Gupte: | first step would probably be to collect links to all the current pages |
[14:13] | Boroondas Gupte: | I was referring to your "details ..." |
[14:13] | Techwolf Lupindo: | When I was working on patch finishing that port. I was thinking on how to do that branding issue. I went though three different irtation though my mind and ended up with a devolope --branding "nameofproject" and have devolope.py handle the three differenct cases of branding, secodnlife, snowglobe, and "emerald". :-) |
[14:13] | Merov Linden: | o right, I was being facetious (as in "that's a detail... :) ) |
[14:13] | Boroondas Gupte: | oh, right :-P |
[14:13] | Merov Linden: | I'm sure it's quite a bit of work |
[14:13] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | I think a "building from source" category in the wiki might help |
[14:14] | Merov Linden: | Techwolf: I like the idea of a --branding option |
[14:14] | Merov Linden: | to develop.py |
[14:14] | Merov Linden: | note that there is more than just a name in branding |
[14:15] | Merov Linden: | logos also, may be specific URLs (for Help) |
[14:15] | Merov Linden: | About bo |
[14:15] | Merov Linden: | *box |
[14:15] | Boroondas Gupte: | Though, ultimately we should seperate client and grid name. (Currently it's possible to get told you aren't able to connect to snowglobe, which doesn't make sense) |
[14:16] | Merov Linden: | Viewer and grid name are separate though |
[14:16] | Merov Linden: | in the messaging |
[14:16] | Techwolf Lupindo: | I was looking at all the "mapping" commands in viewer_manifest.py and was thinkning of adding a thrid one there, but that would end up being a maintance nightmare as each tpv would still have to do some patching. So a --branding to devolope would set the bin name, icon name, and other variables as need before configure cmake and just pass those values onto viewermanifest.py |
[14:16] | Merov Linden: | may be some messages are using the wrong strings though |
[14:16] | Robin Cornelius: | We really need a proper login manager for snowglobe, that handles grids, login URIs helper URIs and provides flags for enabling/disabling things that may be LL speicific such as map tiles from S3 |
[14:16] | Robin Cornelius: | then grid name etc could be taken from that |
[14:17] | Latif Khalifa: | Robin, yes! |
[14:17] | Latif Khalifa: | the current "remember user" hack is driving me mad |
[14:17] | Merov Linden: | interesting idea... |
[14:17] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | About porting 1.x patches to 2.x: Should we still have to have someone else than the person doing the porting review? |
[14:18] | Merov Linden: | I think doing code review is good, even for port |
[14:18] | Merov Linden: | it doesn't have to be me or a linden doing reviews though |
[14:18] | Merov Linden: | any committer could |
[14:19] | Merov Linden: | I saw you did Thickbrick for some patches |
[14:19] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | yes |
[14:19] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | well, we have 3 non-linden commiters, and one of them (Aleric) is sort of on hiatus |
[14:19] | Merov Linden: | but wait: are you talking about small patches from 1.x? may be starghtforward ones? |
[14:20] | Techwolf Lupindo: | I did look over and reviewed a few patches, but i'me not commiter. |
[14:20] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | yes |
[14:20] | Boroondas Gupte: | we need more commiters |
[14:20] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | definitely |
[14:20] | Merov Linden: | hmmm... I see what you mean Thickbrick... you're right: there's certainly a set of patches we should commit "switftly" |
[14:21] | Robin Cornelius: | we need to answer the questions of some want to be comitters who asked months ago about the CLA |
[14:21] | Boroondas Gupte: | that'd be me |
[14:21] | Techwolf Lupindo: | CLA? |
[14:21] | Merov Linden: | yeap |
[14:21] | Merov Linden: | Contributor License Agreement |
[14:21] | Techwolf Lupindo: | Oh, I am on that list. |
[14:21] | Merov Linden: | you've yours on file I think Techwold |
[14:22] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | the other side of having 2.0 is that we can be less conservative when committing to 1.x, since that's not going to be ported to another tree anymore. |
[14:23] | Merov Linden: | well... I'm worried of transforming the 1.x tree in a sort of super experimental advanced version... |
[14:23] | Merov Linden: | is that a good idea? |
[14:23] | Techwolf Lupindo: | Yea, after I tested my webkit plugin hack, I was going to submite a hack for 1.x branch with the convet that sence LL is not going to pull anything, we can commit some ugly/pretty hack to that branch. :-) |
[14:23] | Gooden Uggla: | how about just making it the best choice of those who don't wish toi use 2.0? |
[14:24] | Leslie Scribe: | I have been thinking of SG1.4 as a "fallback version" for people that are not ready to deal with Viewer 2 yet. |
[14:24] | Merov Linden: | Gooden: yeah, but that's a different thing |
[14:24] | Boroondas Gupte: | define "best" |
[14:24] | Jonathan Yap: | +1 Leslie |
[14:24] | Gooden Uggla: | 1.32 is pretty good, i like it a lot :) |
[14:24] | Merov Linden: | SG1.x is used as a "base" for almost all TPV right now |
[14:25] | Boroondas Gupte: | is that already so? |
[14:25] | Merov Linden: | so it's better be stable and solid IMP |
[14:25] | Merov Linden: | IMO |
[14:25] | Boroondas Gupte: | I think a lot are still based on 1.22 mainline |
[14:25] | Gooden Uggla: | but yes, the "fallback" idea is just fine |
[14:25] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | point taken, Merov |
[14:25] | Boroondas Gupte: | (not even 1.23) |
[14:25] | Techwolf Lupindo: | Merov, I think most of the patches submitted for the 1.x branch have that goal in mind. |
[14:26] | Merov Linden: | good, I should so a triage pass on 1.4 JIRA and set a date for release |
[14:26] | Latif Khalifa: | would be nice to have some things for more advanced users, like an account/login manager |
[14:26] | Gooden Uggla: | when other viewers fail, especially for builders, snowglobe operates well |
[14:26] | Latif Khalifa: | and a wold map that works for more than a single gird (agni) |
[14:26] | Latif Khalifa: | doesn't even work for aditi |
[14:26] | Latif Khalifa: | let alone opensim grids |
[14:26] | Merov Linden: | glad to hear people use Snowglobe as a reference :) |
[14:26] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | SNOW-77 needs some love... |
[14:26] | JIRA helper: | http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SNOW-77 [#SNOW-77] S3 map shows main grid map even when on the beta grid |
[14:27] | Latif Khalifa: | did i mention that hard coding urls is bad? :P |
[14:27] | Merov Linden: | ah.... that one is something... |
[14:27] | Techwolf Lupindo: | Latif, that could part of the branding project. |
[14:27] | Merov Linden: | yeah right but... replace by what? |
[14:27] | Boroondas Gupte: | cap? |
[14:27] | Leslie Scribe: | Are Aditi tiles also on S3 just not being refered to by the viewer? |
[14:27] | Boroondas Gupte: | the grid should know where it's map is |
[14:27] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | the discussion of it on sldev drifted into abstract protocol discussion pretty quickly, so the actualy bug was left behind |
[14:28] | Merov Linden: | sure but that's not what I had in mind |
[14:28] | Techwolf Lupindo: | Merov, a flag. Eiether use the 1.23.5 way of maps, or use S3 maps. |
[14:28] | Latif Khalifa: | if (grid == agni) display_fancy_merov_map() else display_legacy_gridlayer_map(); |
[14:28] | Merov Linden: | Latif: the problem is that the legacy code is all gone... |
[14:28] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | Well, jhurliman said he's ready to implement it on opensim, as soon as there's some defined viewer behaviour he can work with. |
[14:29] | Merov Linden: | I guess I could tweak the code so that the mimapping is just not used |
[14:29] | Techwolf Lupindo: | I'me in emerald and I still is getting maps. |
[14:29] | Jonathan Yap: | Correct map on aditi though? |
[14:29] | Latif Khalifa: | emerald is using 1.23 maps |
[14:29] | Latif Khalifa: | Jonathon, no, only agni map works |
[14:29] | Merov Linden: | I think the map on aditi is wrong too |
[14:29] | Latif Khalifa: | in sg and viewer2 |
[14:29] | Boroondas Gupte: | old code gone? isn't that what SCM is for? |
[14:30] | Latif Khalifa: | SCM? |
[14:30] | Latif Khalifa: | ah svn |
[14:30] | Boroondas Gupte: | yeah |
[14:30] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | I'll paste my comment form SNOW-77, if anybody can answer: A suggestion: have the capability return a string to be processed by Recursive URL Substitution Syntax? Or does that opens the door to the same kind of risks an untrusted format string does? (It seems the C++ implementation of RUSS is not actually recursive.) |
[14:30] | Boroondas Gupte: | or is the old code incompatible to new surrounding code? |
[14:30] | Merov Linden: | Boroondas:yes true but having both living together is bloat and ugly |
[14:31] | Latif Khalifa: | well it could be as simple as using the class from 1.23, just give it another name (append Legacy) and instantiate appropriate one |
[14:31] | Merov Linden: | that's not a solution appealing |
[14:31] | Latif Khalifa: | Merov, yes it is bloat and ugly, but not working map is uglier :P |
[14:31] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | (RUSS = http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Recursive_URL_Substitution_Syntax ) |
[14:31] | Boroondas Gupte: | the clean solution would involve server side chanches |
[14:31] | Boroondas Gupte: | *changes |
[14:32] | Latif Khalifa: | Borondas, both |
[14:32] | Latif Khalifa: | both viewer and server |
[14:32] | Latif Khalifa: | as it is written now, the new map assumes you're on agni, doesn't know about anything else |
[14:32] | Merov Linden: | I think we need both: viewer side using cap and server side knowing where its map is |
[14:32] | Merov Linden: | could be the "Time bandit" project (where's the map?) |
[14:33] | Latif Khalifa: | lol |
[14:33] | Merov Linden: | hmmm... It's a good project and certainly something I'd like to get OpenSim folks ideas in |
[14:33] | Merov Linden: | so we get something compatible |
[14:34] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | I think having the viewer use current (hardcoded agni http map) behavior if some new capability is missing is very doable, and allows the server side implementation to come later |
[14:34] | Merov Linden: | but it's more than a viewer side quick fix |
[14:34] | Latif Khalifa: | (unless you go for the ugly quickfix - legacy map) :P |
[14:34] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | Note: Wed Jan 6 15:19:59 PST 2010 Eddy Stryker commented: What is the status on this? Is this patch going into Snowglobe 1.3? The server side can't be implemented until we have a capability name and message format locked down. |
[14:35] | Merov Linden: | IIRC, OpenSim has a collection of tiles also on some servers |
[14:35] | Latif Khalifa: | yes but it works the old way with gird layer messages |
[14:35] | Latif Khalifa: | you request tiles via uud |
[14:35] | Latif Khalifa: | uuid |
[14:35] | Merov Linden: | can't you put them on some http server? |
[14:36] | Merov Linden: | would actually help with load on OpenSim server |
[14:36] | Latif Khalifa: | is there any documentation |
[14:36] | Merov Linden: | there is! |
[14:36] | Merov Linden | digs |
[14:36] | Boroondas Gupte: | http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Map_API |
[14:37] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | From Eddy's (John Hurliman) comment, I think this would be easy to do on opensim, but the capability needs to be defined first. |
[14:37] | Latif Khalifa: | Boroondas, that's for google maps javascript api |
[14:37] | Latif Khalifa: | not what the viewer expects |
[14:37] | Boroondas Gupte: | yeah, just noticed |
[14:38] | Boroondas Gupte: | but there was something about the plain texture's URL's scheme on the wiki, too |
[14:38] | Merov Linden: | Boroondas beat me apparently |
[14:39] | Boroondas Gupte: | ah, here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Map_API #Accessing_map_images_directly |
[14:39] | Merov Linden: | well, it does have the info on how the map tiles are structured |
[14:39] | Merov Linden: | that's all the implicit knowledge the viewer needs |
[14:39] | Merov Linden: | that plus the URL for the base |
[14:40] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | Merov, my point is that it would make sense for the url structure to be determined at runtime, by the url returned by the sim's map capability. |
[14:40] | Jonathan Yap: | Is there currently a map scanner/tile generator for aditi like there is for the main grid? |
[14:41] | Merov Linden: | Jonathan: I don't think there is |
[14:41] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | for example, in the future it might be http://map.secondlife.com/map/Z/X/Y/objects/image.jpg |
[14:41] | Merov Linden: | the mapserver process is not run on aditi (as I know of) |
[14:41] | Merov Linden: | Thickbrick: you want to use some template for the URL itself? |
[14:42] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | I think that would make sense |
[14:42] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | this url structure is pretty rigid |
[14:42] | Boroondas Gupte: | indeed |
[14:42] | Boroondas Gupte: | remember, pre-http there were two tile-sets, ground-only and ground with objects |
[14:43] | Merov Linden: | it's true but, as long as we stay in a 2D organization of the regions, any strucuture is going to be congruent to that and so very close |
[14:43] | Latif Khalifa: | for the sake of implementation, would a patch that implementes MapUrlPrefix debug settings be acceptable, later the same var can be plugged from a cap, or login response |
[14:43] | Ardy Lay: | Is Z meant to be a map layer selector? |
[14:43] | Merov Linden: | all the combination of X, Y, Z and object and possible but that's not super interesting IMO |
[14:44] | Boroondas Gupte: | Z is for zoom level |
[14:44] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | if the server returns a template, that can be worked into Gayeda's patch pretty easily. |
[14:44] | Boroondas Gupte: | (not height) |
[14:44] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | Latif: I think so. |
[14:44] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | but that's just a half-measure. |
[14:44] | Ardy Lay: | Would be nice to have a layer selector in the spec even if LL doesn't intend to provide multiple map layers. |
[14:44] | Merov Linden: | more like a graph (network) |
[14:45] | Merov Linden: | how do you represent such a map? |
[14:45] | Latif Khalifa: | Thick, yes, but it would allow an OpenSim dev to change the prefix and work on implemeting the feature |
[14:46] | Boroondas Gupte: | how well do debug settings cope with multiple sessions at the same time? |
[14:46] | Ardy Lay: | Poorly |
[14:46] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | we don't really have an alternative. |
[14:46] | Merov Linden: | k, well, I think we should keep SNOW-77 open for discussion for sure |
[14:47] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | it's something we need to get right, but letting it hang for so long might be worse than getting t wrong. |
[14:47] | Boroondas Gupte: | yeah |
[14:47] | Boroondas Gupte: | let's get it right incrementailly :-) |
[14:47] | Merov Linden: | true, implementing some cap to get the URL is a first stopgap measure |
[14:48] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | so gayeda's patch + debug setting for default fallback url? |
[14:48] | Merov Linden: | something like that, I'd like to read that patch though before saying "yes" |
[14:49] | Merov Linden: | before we part, Thickbrick mentioned SNOW-586 |
[14:49] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | I'm not sure if the way I did the patch for 2.0 there will land me in UI hell or not |
[14:49] | Merov Linden: | http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SNOW-586 |
[14:49] | JIRA helper: | [#SNOW-586] Add option to align textures across (planar-mapped, co-planar) faces |
[14:50] | Ardy Lay: | I have been useing that some. |
[14:50] | Ardy Lay: | People watch me and ask how to do that. :-) |
[14:50] | Thickbrick Sleaford | smiles |
[14:50] | Merov Linden: | This is a noce one really |
[14:50] | Merov Linden: | *nice |
[14:51] | Ardy Lay: | Only suggestion I have is can you prevent attempts to use it when faces are not coplanar? |
[14:51] | Merov Linden: | I remember reviewing the 1.4 patch and giving it thumbs up |
[14:51] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | specifically, I mean this snapshot: http://jira.secondlife.com/secure/attachment/38742/SNOW-586_viewer2_ui.png |
[14:51] | Boroondas Gupte: | can't you just make the floater some bigger? |
[14:52] | Boroondas Gupte: | then you can disable controls but still display them |
[14:52] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | Oh, I didn't notice you reviewed the 1.x patch Merov |
[14:52] | Merov Linden: | didn't I? |
[14:52] | Merov Linden | checks again |
[14:52] | Ardy Lay: | People already bitch about that tool window being too big. |
[14:52] | Ardy Lay: | The loss of the More button still irks some. |
[14:53] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | it's larger in 2.0, and I'm scared of doing far-reaching changes to XUI |
[14:53] | Merov Linden: | Yeah: comment March 25 |
[14:53] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | cool |
[14:53] | Merov Linden: | I just mentioned some UI issues |
[14:53] | Ardy Lay: | Objects: 0, Prims: 1.... |
[14:53] | Boroondas Gupte: | :-P |
[14:53] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | heh |
[14:54] | Boroondas Gupte: | it's a stand-allone prim, not part of any object and not being one itself |
[14:54] | Ardy Lay: | 1.23.5 blanked objects count when working on less than a link member. |
[14:54] | Merov Linden: | It's one of those that's worth committing and see how people react to it |
[14:54] | Ardy Lay: | 1.23.5 blanked object count when working on a link single member. |
[14:55] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | So what do guys think about having a control that magically disappears unless you have the right prim selected? |
[14:55] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | *what do you guys |
[14:55] | Boroondas Gupte: | BAD! |
[14:55] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | Blender-like bad, or just not nice? |
[14:55] | Jacek Antonelli: | Disappearing controls are bad. |
[14:55] | Merov Linden: | I prefer "gray out" (as in "not available in that context") |
[14:56] | Jacek Antonelli: | Disappearing leads to confusion. Confusion leads to hate. Hate... leads to the dark side! |
[14:56] | Ardy Lay: | Lots of space above the mapping listbox. |
[14:56] | Ardy Lay: | Beside Fullbright |
[14:56] | Boroondas Gupte: | also, repeats per meter can make sense for planar mapping, too, no? |
[14:56] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | so move above "Mapping"? |
[14:57] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | the "Repeats / Meter" is greyed out in planar, since the regular UV scale controls do that already in planar mode. |
[14:57] | Boroondas Gupte: | oh, wait, there's repeats per meter and per face ... |
[14:57] | Boroondas Gupte: | hm |
[14:57] | Ardy Lay: | Repeats per Meter "moves up". |
[14:57] | Boroondas Gupte: | ic |
[14:58] | Boroondas Gupte: | per face is missing when planar ... kinda makes sense |
[14:58] | Ardy Lay: | I like the example image but don't know how others will react. |
[14:59] | Boroondas Gupte: | ok, the current UI is already confusing, renaming controls depending on mapping |
[14:59] | Merov Linden: | it applies only when planar is selected, right? |
[14:59] | Ardy Lay: | Also, are we ever going to have more mapping methods? |
[15:00] | Jacek Antonelli: | Gotta run, take care all |
[15:00] | Ardy Lay: | "Atlasable" should be added. ;-) |
[15:00] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | so the point about disappearing controls is well taken - I'll try to find another place for it that can gray-out, not hide. |
[15:00] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | there's stub code in llface.cpp for cylindrical and spherical mapping. |
[15:00] | Ardy Lay: | Yes, I see that. |
[15:01] | Merov Linden: | I always vote for keeping things that depend of each other close visually so that "graying out" is not too jarring when it happen |
[15:01] | Merov Linden: | and you get a clue as to what to click to make it change |
[15:01] | Boroondas Gupte: | actually, when you currently select "Planar" you see "Repeats Per Meter" twice, one of them greyed out |
[15:02] | Merov Linden: | other than that, I don't have enough mileage on that UI to make super useful proposition |
[15:02] | Merov Linden: | I do like the feature though, it seems super hard to do that without that option |
[15:02] | Ardy Lay: | [Default, Planar, Planar Aligned] |
[15:02] | Ardy Lay: | In the list box? |
[15:03] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | The edit tools flaoter port to 2.0 looks a little bit unfinished, so I'm assuming we'll see another edition of it eventually, and have to merge that. |
[15:03] | Merov Linden: | so +1 in having that in 1.4 and 2.0 :) |
[15:03] | Merov Linden: | Thickbrick: I think so |
[15:03] | Ardy Lay: | I think it's getting put into the sidebar. |
[15:04] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | Ardy, I'm not sure about that, since that confuses prim properties with UI properties. |
[15:04] | Merov Linden: | k, it's 3pm folks |
[15:04] | Ardy Lay: | Thickbrick, okay |
[15:04] | Merov Linden: | I need to run , thansk for the discussion |
[15:04] | Latif Khalifa: | have fun Merov |
[15:05] | Merov Linden | typing *really*terrible today |
[15:05] | Merov Linden: | cheers! :) |
[15:05] | Boroondas Gupte: | in "Default" mode, why do I have to click "Apply" to set Repeats/Meter? That's not a too costly calculation, so we could do it "life", couldn't we? |
[15:06] | Techwolf Lupindo: | See you all later. I'me going over to http://slurl.com/secondlife/Pooley/219/67/76 for beta offie hours. It was move to maingrid. |
[15:06] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | I think the "apply" button is there to prevent accidents |
[15:07] | Boroondas Gupte: | actually, I think there should be seperate per-meter controls for u and v |
[15:07] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | there is - planar mode |
[15:07] | Boroondas Gupte: | those could be placed right next to the per face fields |
[15:08] | Boroondas Gupte: | (where the flip is now, putting the flip somewhat more to the right) |
[15:09] | Boroondas Gupte: | oh, and a toggle to lock or release u:v ratio, like any decent graphics app has |
[15:10] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | speaking of any decent graphics app: we need drag/rotate/scale handles for textures |
[15:10] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | for faces, rather |
[15:10] | Robin Cornelius: | I've found bugs in the latest webkit media plugin ;-/ |
[15:10] | Boroondas Gupte: | That might be trickier |
[15:11] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | Robin: in the plugin code, or llqtwebkit? |
[15:12] | Latif Khalifa: | http://slurl.com/secondlife/Pooley/219/67/76 |
[15:12] | Robin Cornelius: | plugin code |
[15:12] | Robin Cornelius: | the big ugly if else block for one has missing elses in media messages |
[15:12] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | Latif just demonstrated why a browser-like adress bar is not such a bad thing... |
[15:13] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | Ardy, crashing? |
[15:13] | Thickbrick Sleaford | is BRBing |
[15:13] | Robin Cornelius: | and porting the latest 2.0 code back results in no media, but debugging gets unknown messages in the log , slghtly older 2.0 code works perfectly |
[15:13] | Ardy Lay: | Nah, tried to get into Aditi but still no good. |
[15:13] | Ardy Lay: | Off to http://slurl.com/secondlife/Pooley/219/67/76 |
[15:14] | Thickbrick Sleaford | wonders what's hapening in Pooley |
[15:16] | Boroondas Gupte: | beta office hours, if I understood corretly |
[15:17] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | oh, they moved it to agni? |
[15:17] | Leslie Scribe: | Yeah, Aditi was firewalled until about 3 minutes ago. |
[15:18] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | ugg, I'm wearing a completly different outfit in 2.0 than in 1.4 |
[15:18] | Boroondas Gupte: | :-P |
[15:19] | Leslie Scribe: | Welcome to the wonderment of V2 |
[15:21] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | did the ok and cancel button switch places in 2.0? |
[15:21] | Thickbrick Sleaford: | I can't remember, but I keep hitting cancel |
[15:21] | Leslie Scribe: | Try again? |
[15:23] | Boroondas Gupte | waves |
